Welcome back to Paradise for the last Beach Chat of 2025!!
It's been a great year, it was about this time last year that I started working on Paradise City. What a journey I've been on, I went from not knowing anything about RenPy and never having rendered an image before to producing somewhere in the neighborhood of 3,327 renders. (Including the upcoming update)
Incredible! I'm curious how large the final count will be once the game is complete. In that time I've become more skilled in using Daz3D and found more efficient ways of working. Always a learning experience and I still have much more to learn.
I want to thank everyone who's supported the project, it really means a lot. The support has encouraged me to put more hours into the project than I normally would. Without support I still would have made the game, but progress would have been much slower. So thank you all and I hope that I have kept up with your expectations and giving you a product you are happy to support.
What's ahead for 2026? Hopefully the completion of the game. :-) If all goes well this time next year I'll be announcing the completion of Paradise City. Armed with new more powerful hardware, which will now really increase my rendering capacity.
The Update:It's on track unless some problems jumps out at me this weekend. The rendering should be completed in time.

Well that's a wrap on 2025. Have a great weekend and a Happy New Year!
